EU MozCamp 2009/Schedule/L10n Track

Description: Many improvements have been made to the Mozilla l10n infrastructure, including dashboard enhancements, nightly builds/updates, l10n-merge code, compare-locales output, and more. The l10n community is now being served with many tools and services that have been improved greatly over the past year. Additionally, many news tools are under development. This talk will cover all of these improvements made and improvements coming. Open discussion will take place on what more is needed.

Description: A burgeoning community is growing around Mozilla Community Sites, something being driven by Zbigniew Braniecki and other community members. We will use this opportunity to chat about forthcoming features and how the community will grow the MCS project.

Description: Verbatim is Mozilla's translation tool development platform. Imagine a day where one platform, via a web interface, could be used to translate all Mozilla properties (products, websites, marketing campaigns, addons, etc.) if a localization community chose to use it. Fred, Gandalf and Sethb are driving the project management and development of this concept. Our hope is to build a platform where communities can use a tool not only to translate, but also to gather new contributors to help localizing Mozilla projects. Our hope is that Verbatim will be an option to use. This project does not compete with existing tool applications. It's a compliment and this discussion will explain why/how this is true.

L20n and a piece of chalk - Axel Hecht and Jeremy Hiatt

Description: L10n 2.0. It's highly complex and incredibly innovative. It's time to discuss how Mozilla's code base might change one day to offer new, more dynamic and "real language" ways to localize code.
